550 psi, make sure when you start that the back glide is at it's proper height. If you adjust it with your machine on you'll know it's good when you hear it suck down. Erik probably has it set up already.

I just bought my 2nd zipper. They are well made. It edges/vacuums vey well against the wall. I like the sight tube. I cleaned Titan Freight Systems the other day. Nylon carpet with diesel soot in the carpet. We have to pull the chairs mats so you can see the dirt lines pretty well. clean evry 6 months.
Usually have to prespray and scrub but the just did a redline prespray and soap free rinse, slow rinse and dry stroke. Perfect.
I even became an emulisfer hack at Anna's Bridal. Did an 8' X 50' section, did another about the same size then started my 3rd area, the first area was about dry when I was done with the 3rd area
If you think about it, you are vacuuming up your prespray and dirt before you rinse then you rinse and dual chamber vacuum with a dry stroke. That is vacuumimng the same area 4 times

It's all I use for commercial carpets. Im getting my second one next week. I'm also ordering 2 mounting brackets Aero Tech made for Erik. Dustin I bet you're going to hate parting ways with that Zipper, I bet it won't be long before you order one

Erick. How much for a 18 inch with 24 flow.
Sorry Ron N/A
Sorry Ron N/A. What about a 17.5" seven jet 21 flow?

I wouldnt want anything bigger than the 15. When cleaning commercial carpets the wider the wand the better chance your going to have a break in suction because of uneven surfaces.
Perhaps making a bracket similar to the one some of these CRB companies have to allow 2 CRB's to run together, plus adding the weights on the zipper so they stayed down, could hook up 2 15 inch zippers creating a 30 incher for big open areas like Ron has been doing w/ that large commercial job.
You guys w/ 2 zippers must be doing 3000-4000k sqft per hour on average?

Everyday is Saturday.
I am trying to get the guys to like the zipper more, I think it is built like a champ and on commercial flushes like crazy.
I also like that the vac slots stay on carpet while dual wanding really makes a difference.
Would like to try dual zippers at the same time off the same truck.
Not really a fan on residential but Erik has something he wants me to try hopefully soon.

It all depends on the level of dirt. We cleaned the church the other day. All open areas. Cleaned it a few years in a row with Cimexs. Dual zippers were almost as fast as 2 cimexs but the devastor filters plugged a few times in an 1 1/2 of cleaning. I cleaned a 150' X 4' aisle in a matter of minutes. They flush like crazy. With the sight tube it is easy to see how much moisture you are vacuumimng up.
